I received the Feb. 7edition of KLTW and was greeted with two articles on the first page that just got me fuming!

In the article about the trunk line, now council is looking at building some sort of bridge to accommodate things, but in the meantime, because of all their meaningless bickering and arguing, Home Depot decides that this has taken way to long and that the City has not had "the growth that was expected."

Of course the City has not grown as expected....our council is acting like a bunch of kindergarten kids and cannot solve anything as a group.

How the heck are we going to get anyone or any business to come to this city if council does not get off it high horse and start doing what they were elected to do?

How I wish there was an election tomorrow. I would not vote for a single person who is on that council right now.

Not only is Home Depot not coming, but ATVs are not allowed in Lindsay either.

Now, I am not an ATV owner, but do we not want to welcome people to come through our town? Open the trails to everyone. Will it bring a lot of business to town? Who knows, but it certainly opens our community up and says to them to come in and see what we have to offer. It seems to work in Fenelon Falls.

I may be incorrect, but I do not believe there are many issues with the riders following the route that they must take to get to the trails.

It really is time for these bungling bunch of adults to get together and solve some of the issues that they are faced with.

With big box stores wanting to locate in our city, it brings jobs to young and old and has a huge economic impact on the city. People are trying to find jobs locally, so that they can stay in our community and not have to commute to other areas, to try and keep their living expenses down, and what is happening here? Nothing.

I have lived in Lindsay my whole life, and, yes, I love my community and would not want to be or live anywhere else. But how much longer do we have to go on like this?

I thought that the idea was to move forward.

Does it feel like we are? I do not think so.

As a matter of fact, we are falling behind....way behind.

It is time for some of our elected officials to step up to the plate and be part of the solution and not add to the problem.
